Evil Magistrates rule the planet. Who can stop them? A frightened, naive, frail young Prince? His nurse maid? A widowed mother of ten children? A collection of oddball geniuses? Can these people restore Laissezfairia to its former glory? Not likely. But they're going to give it their best shot.

Mr. Lyons (no one ever calls him that but he hopes someday someone will) lives in Maryland with his beautiful wife and pictures of his clever children, patient relatives and friends. This is his first novel. Sequels in the Laissezfairia series are in the works. His earlier short stories and news of his upcoming novels can be found at wclyons.com. (Most of the short stories are family friendly but "Ensnared" is a wildly inappropriate story that should not be read by anyone under the age of forty. It was submitted for a Pushcart Award, go figure.) Mr. Lyons hopes you enjoy this book.
